Battlefield 4

Battlefield 4‘s single-player campaign sounds like the same skippable tutorial it usually is: some gameplay refinements, new weapons and weapon modes, new player skills and melee combat options and some obligatory visual polish to differentiate the next-gen versions from their prior-gen peers.

You’re going to want to play for the new multiplayer maps and modes, in other words, where you’ll square off against fellow players as China, Russia or the U.S. One of the twists: you can flit around the battlefield using a Battlefield 2142-style “Commander Mode” grand tactical view and delegation system.
